Is the 2021 Toyota Avalon TRD a true sport sedan you should buy?
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
The Avalon TRD gets some new touches for 2021from Toyota. The most obvious is an ALL NEW color called Ice Edge. On the outside the TRD still come with a unique front fascia, wheels, extra aero, sport rear bumper, and TRD cat-back exhaust. On the inside there is a 9in infotainment system, TRD seats, and tons of other touches. Under the hood is the tried and true 3.5L v6 that is pumping out 301HP & is mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission. Is the 2021 Toyota Avalon TRD a true sport sedan you should buy?

Avalon's are one of the if not the most reliable cars on the road. They last forever, have tons of room inside . This TRD looks fun to drive. With a killer freezing cold A/C can't beat it. But I'm digging the new Acura TLX models too.
I got an Avalon TRD out the door full loaded with the JBL for 41k. Love it as its so different and the handling around the corners is where it shines the most. Very quick and the power is effortless! I still get stopped and looks from people admiring the car.

The thing I like best about Joe’s reviews is that he shows every single aspect of the car. I feel like I don’t even need to experience the car in real life after watching his reviews. The car manufacturers and dealers definitely need to keep giving Joe all of these great cars to review. It is better than trying to read about them in the magazines.

Just copped mine, an amazing car love it and going to enjoy it for years to come.
I’ve waited for this! That’s a very cool sports trim for the Avalon
We had ten years with a Prius. It was a joy to have more power with a 2.5L RAV4. We understand the Prius mindset. But, we could always use more power! Today, we saw this vehicle at a Toyota dealership. It is quite striking to look at. Thank you Raiti's Rides!
Joe and Lori really out here pumping out daily quality content, especially during a gas shortage in a pandemic. We love these two
This guy is nonstop. Best reviewer hands down 🤝
Been waiting for this one Joe!! Thanks for a great performance once again
Hey Joe, how are you? I love this car literally so much. Thanks for making a video on this one!
Joe and Lori. Thanks for another great video! This AVALON TRD I feel is just right. Not a total speed car but she has enough power I feel. I dig the interior and exterior colors. Red stitching. Love that EXHAUST sound! Lori, You are Joe's Doll, and a DARE DOLL!, THE BEST! ( LORI, LORI, LORI!!!) Thanks for all you do!RIDE ON!, RIGHT ON! SEE you guys on ANOTHER ride!
Nice sedan! I'm the guy that's want the handling and braking. Great colour. Thanks for all you do for the channel, Lori!
I legit love this car. I think it looks so nice in that colour. Great review!
This is actually my favorite Toyota Sedan. I guess I found the right video to take a look at.
“9 inches of visual pleasure” I’ve never used or heard this phrase in my life.
Great video! I myself own the Avalon TRD, im still on the fence? could have been a lot better, im really looking at the mazda6 carbon, but hey I enjoy the enthusiasm you bring and how Lori works the camera ! best team out there! keep bringing them in Joe! happy belated sir!
Lori - how do you survive Joe’s humor? Excellent video guys!

Hey Joe, how are you? Great review 👍 This is probably one of my favorite sedans if I were to have one.

Hey Joe, after your first review, I had to see one in person. Drove it, and was shocked at the ride and power. I love how many attention to detail Touches this car has. I ended up trading in my GTI and bought one in ICE EDGE. The color is incredible. Sometimes it looks white, sometimes very light grey. Just a tiny Metallic sparkle. No photo shows the color well unless there is a car in white right next to it.

I love the video great detail in describing this vehicle. I have a 2021 Camry TRD same color wanted to know how it stacked up against its big brother. The only I am missing is the sun roof which takes the TRD experience to another level. TRD Avalon is great car!

It's such a cool car. If I lived someone warm all year round the Avalon seems like a great all rounder
I think it looks pretty sick. Good review too 👍
Like this video. I own 2007 avalon. Think I will upgrade to this ice edge avalon. Will have to some modifications for more power. Keep doing avalon trd videos please
Hi Zonkman, really enjoy feasting my eyes on this Toyota Avalon TRD but my question for you actually 2 questions for you are: 1. What would happen if Toyora and it's competitors believed in making perfect vehicles and not mess up their design and why? 2. How will cars look if they were perfect without a single flaw?
I love the Avalon TRDs and all the other TRD models but the only issue is the flat black wheels fade quickly. A high gloss black would look much better when compared to the white paint work and its a lot easier to clean. I think the tacoma trd pro comes with gloss black wheels unlike all the other models.
Though this is TRD, Avalon Touring is my dream car! Thanks for giving the Avalon a deserved fair shake.

I took a chance with a Stinger over this--last car was a Honda and reliability is now in my top 3 categories for cars.Stinger has been reliable and their 10 year warranty sold me--I was worried about reliability but on the stinger forum there are very few problems with 2020s and all are minor.Toyota is also not budging on the price--I buy cars outright and KIA and the dealer both gave me rebates--43k stinger became 36k--and then the trade i owned knocked the stinger down to 19k out the door.19k for a low 4 second AWD car that is warranted for 10 years edged out this car for me.I bought the car last April at the height of covid and KIA was doing evrything to get rid of their cars.Car is worth almost 35k as a trade in a year later--so it hardly depreciated.
